THE PROSTATE CANCER CHARITY

Early day motion 13, tabled 25 May 2010 by John Leech (Liberal Democrat). Signed by 67 members.

That this House notes that prostate cancer is the most common form of cancer in men, with over 35,000 men in the UK diagnosed with the disease each year; is concerned that a significant proportion of men affected by prostate cancer report that they receive inadequate support to help them cope with the disease; applauds the work that The Prostate Cancer Charity does to promote improved prostate cancer care and provide support and information; and welcomes commitments to reduce inequalities in support, outcomes, research and early detection of prostate cancer in the Charity's Pledge for Prostate Cancer.

Signatures by party: Labour 33, Liberal Democrat 18, Conservative 6, DUP 5, Social Democratic and Labour Party 2, Independent 1, Plaid Cymru 1, Scottish National Party 1.
